41. You Make Me Lie Down 14 February 2012 I love the song “You make me lie down in green pastures” by Don Moen. It’s been stuck in my head ever since I heard it at a concert. “He makes me lie down” (Psalm 23:2). There’s a secret in this verse we often rush past.

First impressions can be very misleading. We judge someone on a snippet of their personality‚ or a stereotype‚ and expect them to stick to the mold we set. Very rarely they do‚ and very often we are surprised by who they really are. In "Brother‚ Can You Spare a Dream" by Jackie French Koller‚ the main character‚ Sam‚ lumps his family’s boarder in with a stereotype of city men‚ thinking the boarder to be a ’thief’ who ’stole’ a job that should have been offered to Sam.

There’s a reason why I always believed that the greatest gift we can share with those we love is time because memories have sentimental value that lasts you a lifetime. Having a Lamborghini and enjoying it one your own is only half as rewarding as having someone enjoy it with you. Sharing time with your
